I swear when I measured it before it was 165mm...but you had me second guessing myself. So I measured with a different, soft measuring tape and it’s actually 155mm (6”).So that would explain it.
Oh no.
Makes sure you get two holes punched then!

My blue horizon sports band came so I paired it with my original white sports band for this clown sports band look 
thanks for the inspiration @abcsoup!

If you want a classy one, the official Apple Watch charging dock would work.

I use one like this and it’s super...but I wouldn’t call it “classy”

Can’t decided if I should go with blue horizon or midnight blue... which matches better? Probably midnightMy blue horizon sports band came so I paired it with my original white sports band for this clown sports band look

I’d say Midnight Blue does since it’s closer to dark navy.
I think the midnight blue I have matches the indigo of the original Hermes strap quite closely, and it probably replicates the clown strap indigo much the same way. However, the horizon blue is a bit brighter and more intense of a blue, and I think it might match the blue of the actual watchface better.
Well, that was embarrassing. I just got back from an Apple store that had a double tour for try-on and I could not make the thing fit. I'm male and 140lb, so I guess I have abnormally large monkey wrists. I can't imagine this is a promising outlook for the rest of the populace.

I think the blue horizon is brighter and more vibrant than the midnight blue and it matches the watch face better.
But I feel like the midnight blue matches the indigo blue better... decisions decisions
OK, so given my Double Tour Bordeaux/Rose is too small for me, should I sell it here, Marketplace, or go to eBay?
Return within 14 days and buy another one that fits better?
But you won’t be wearing the sport band and indigo single tour at the same time?
Return it. Unless you made the mistake of buying from Hermès.

I’m not saying I will. I’m just saying the midnight blue might match better with the Hermès blue color watch face.Return within 14 days and buy another one that fits better?

but i bought it with the watch. and there are no single tour bands currently available.
I checked out both blues in person today at the Apple Store, and went with the Midnight. Felt a bit more serious, though there's nothing wrong with the brighter Horizon color.
Might be better off returning it to apple and get the full refund and wait for the one you want.
It’ll be hard for you to recoup 100% of the cost whether you sell it on eBay or here or other avenues.

I might need to buy both now
I'm trying to order from this link - it says page doesnt exist. I can't figure out this website. Any way to contact them and order this? would love to get a few of themGood grief, you might want to improve your Chinese and get them here
You could check out Etsy. There are some really talented leather-smiths on there who make quality bands, often out of the same leather source that Hermès uses, at ~15-25% of the price.
The seller is still on taobao but yes it’s very difficult for non Chinese speaking buyers to order from them.

I did the same thing and went with blue horizon because it matches the new watch face - Blue Horizon is also a new color to select within the watch for face color options

Recoupment advice appreciated. I think I will need til tomorrow to fully absorb the Marketplace rules, which seem to allow posting description & link to eBay, where I have many years experience & positive reviews.
I still have to unload an S3 and an iPhone X as well.
If you guys want a nice charging dock pick up this

New to the thread, potentially. Ordered my watch couple weeks ago and went with the Indigo single tour band. Any thoughts on that band with business casual attire?
I wish they would make double tour for 44mm, it's like they think guys won't wear them if they are doing only 40mm. The same with Apple modern buckles.
